The FIA has explored the possibility of reducing the number of people allowed on F1 starting grids in the light of Neymar 's appearance at the Spanish Grand Prix.
Brazil and Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar, who was also in Monaco for the previous race on the calendar, was one of the celebrities hovering around the grid in Barcelona. The 31-year-old spent several years in Barcelona before joining his current club, and has made a number of returns to the city.
The sight of famous faces on the grid is not a new one, with a number of celebrities seen throughout the race calendar. However, after Neymar was spotted on the edge of the grass on the main straight while cars went about on their formation lap, questions have been asked.
